Baby AG was just a way to get a Safe baby without making Sami pop out another one. They'll probably kill off Will and Gabi and have Safe co-parent her.

Whether a popular opinion or not, I could see this actually being true. I can't see Will and Gabi running off together without Sonny, especially since the gay storyline has given DOOL some needed acclaim. Unless they are going to hand little Arianna Grace over to Ejami, which I truly can't see happening either.

I am really puzzled as to why Days hasn't been able to lock in a couple of younger stars on which to build the next generation of the show. It seems like there has been a revolving door policy related to the young cast in that they bring them in for a few years and then send them on their way. I am not sure if they care about fans who want to see the same actors age alongside their characters. Is AZ the last early 20something to come on to the show and remain for several contract cycles? Would NB qualify even though she is no longer a regular despite her recent three month stint?

I'm sure economics is at play here with the reduced budgets preventing the show from retaining quality young talent along with the scores of vets people want to see on the show. I suppose the uncertainty of the genre has prevented young actors with no security from attaching themselves to what could be a dying show with no long term life to it. Personally, I think the soap collapse has bottomed out, which should help, although I don't think a rapid rebound is in the cards.

The show should do everything it can to retain talented and likeable young actors such as CM and KM, even if that means cuts in other areas, including more vets. The future of this show lies with the younger cast. Life goes on and this show cannot sustain itself by having AS portray the same stories for the next 20 years that she has portrayed for the past 20 years. Then again, maybe Corday wants to hit 50 years and then call it good.

Don't soaps in general still have the same problem? In addition to the issues you mentioned, by pretty much all accounts soap acting is very difficult, but not well respected work. Things might be even harder for Days actors because of their filming schedule.

And I'm not positive about this, but didn't all the 80s stars willingly jump ship and try to find other work then come back to Days later on?

I think with Days the situation is a bit specific. Almost all younger actors leave once their initial contract expires. Casey Deidrick is probably the first young actor in ages to renew his contract. On other soaps, it's a bit different. For example, Michael Graziadei and Julie Marie Berman were both on their respective soaps for almost a decade before leaving. On B&B, young actors just keep on renewing and renewing. At most, they take short breaks between cycles.

I think the reason why Days actors leave is because their contract restricts work outside of Days a lot. Ashley Benson famously left because Days wouldn't let her do movies.

But, a lot of them do come back, as 80s and 90s have shown. Darin Brooks and Blake Berris are both back in soaps. I think it's only a matter of time before Rachel Melvin is back. We'll see what the future holds for actors who fairly recently departed the show (Burnett, Hennig, Hapka) and those who are yet to (maybe) leave it one day (Massey, Banus, Mansi, Moss, etc.).

I didn't know that about B&B, but it seems to me like most of the soaps seem to be able to hold onto about one young person from each set of teens. Although now that you mention it, Days doesn't seem successful at doing that.

Days actually has a big problem in that it's missing two age groups between Sami's and Will's age groups. Now that Nadia is gone, there is no one left from the Last Blast gang. Also, Nick is the only one left from the 2007 college scene, but he's hanging with Will's gang because there's nobody from his age group currently on the show (I'm excluding Abby due to the de-SORAS that happened in 2010). But, as someone above mentioned, Days is trying to avoid this issue with the current college scene by bringing in new people now that two are leaving.

Maybe Will and Gabi are presumed dead and Sonny vies for custody of Arianna vs. Sami? To me if both leave that is the perfect story and one that would keep me watching and truly establish Sonny as a main character in his age group. I'd love this story. Mix Adrienne in this vs. Sami and maybe even Justin vs. EJ. Huge story.

Still, not sure if Sonny vying for custody would make sense unless he had a legal right to the baby. If Gabi and Will leave him custody of her then fine, but why would Sami try to get custody if that's not what Will wanted? Unless they want to make Sami into a total bitch, can't see the writers going there.

Call me crazy, but isn't it most likely that Gabi and/or Will takes the baby with them if they leave? It's not like Arianna Horton can't leave the town of Salem.

i don't think you're crazy at all. In fact I can see Gabi possibly going to jail for her part in the cliffhanger bombing, and Will taking his daughter out of town to raise her where she wouldn't hear bad stuff about her mother.

Question is ...will Will leave town alone with his daughter, or will Lucas or perhaps Rafe go with him.
